hi all
I am sure there must be but I cannot seem to find it.i am looking if there is an mn book grouo reading approx 1 book per month. I get suckered into going online every evening and want to get back to reading again and am a lp so can't get out to a real life book group. if there is one ready to go for January I'd love the link if possible so can get started. thanks all

Ooh glad there's others also interested. I've joined the glossed in a good book facebook group but it seems to be recommendations for books rather than discussion of one particular group.
Would a Facebook group be the best way forward to do this? I am happy to create a group and can put the fb group name on here then we could discuss it more on the group?

overuse of the word group there! and meant the other fb group does not discuss a particular book.
not sure how a fb group would work privacy wise though? but I guess if we started as a relatively small group it wouldn't matter if we all knew each other's real names?

ok payfrozen. sounds a good plan. How shall we sort out book choice? and also when would be the monthly deadline to finish reading so we can then discuss it and pick the next one?
